Your Horoscope: Week of Oct. 22-28, 2014

This Week: The solar eclipse Oct. 24 can be utilized for productive activity, considering its ability to amplify energy. Yet, it creates a fox-like medicine as well, which means when we wish to be seen, we can put ourselves in the limelight. When we choose to be under wraps, we can become invisible with this vibration. Mercury retrograde completes its mischievous cycle Oct. 26. Remember, it can be just as turbulent going out as it is when it arrives. Quieter planetary elements are on the horizon now. I think we could all use a little break from the chaos.

Aries (March 21 to April 19) — An unusual legal matter or document may have you spinning your wheels early on this week. Try not to become too overwhelmed by all of this activity. There is only so much you can do to change the course of events with another. Trust that this will all turn out for the best in the long run. The health of a female friend or family member may be on your mind. Take care of yourself first.

Taurus (April 20 to May 20)­ — The focus this week is on home and property — sprucing up the current residence or looking for something new. This will provide you with that little energy boost you’ve been searching for. Once this falls into place, you will be amazed at how much better you will feel. Romance takes on a new shape and form now. You’re more confident with your decisions in life by week’s end.

Gemini (May 21 to June 20) — There is a healing energy working within your physical and emotional space at this time. Try to receive this openly, even though it may feel a little unfamiliar to you now. Life provides you with solutions to a long-standing problem now. Accept these with open arms, and allow this knowledge to surround you and flow through you. By week’s end, you have the clarity you need to move forward — with no regrets.

Cancer (June 21 to July 22) — This may be an excellent time to “kiss and make up” with your significant other, family member or a valuable friend. You have not been yourself, and as a result, you may not have presented yourself in the best possible light the last few weeks. Hiding your head in the sand and pretending like nothing happened will not resolve the issue. Facing it head on will ensure the best results. By week’s end, things appear to fall back into place.

Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22) — Finally, the universe has stepped in and removed a source of worry or frustration from your orbit. Retrace your steps, and try to figure out how this all aligned in the first place. That way, you will understand exactly how to avoid finding yourself in these situations again. If there is a pattern, put the brakes on it. Keeping an open line of communication with loved ones is important at this time.

Virgo (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) — Romantic elements come into full view at this time. No matter what the outside influences reveal, your own inner voice provides the truth. The old saying “If you can’t be with the one you love, honey, love the one you’re with,” does not work for you now. You need to proclaim your love for the “one” who makes the most sense in your life now, with crystal clarity.

Libra (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) — Those around you could be quite emotional or overwhelmed this week, with circumstances that are out of their control. Try not to take this behavior personally, and set a boundary with how much garbage you’re willing to accept. Midweek, the truth is revealed and hidden influences are exposed. Career options arrive with improvements toward your long-term goals. Put your best foot forward.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) — This is a great time to get a second opinion with your career. Co-workers are more than willing to help you solve a problem as well as advance your long-term goals. Your personal life may need a little more attention at this time. Extend invitations for an impromptu gathering this weekend. Mixing business and pleasure works out in your favor.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) — Advancements with your career sector arrive at this time. All of your past efforts, combined with a little blood, sweat and tears, provide the “payoff” now. You may want to get those mundane tasks out of the way now before you become too overwhelmed. You may need to have a heart-to-heart talk with a friend or family member. You will be able to help them through a difficult time with your love and compassion.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) — Your energy begins to shift into high gear midweek. Take advantage of this aspect, and get those annoying tasks out of the way. Your social sector begins to expand. This is a great time to connect with those of like mind and spirit. You may need to retrace your steps to locate a lost item or article. Don’t panic; it will magically appear when you least expect it.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) — Loved ones reach out to you and offer emotional support. Do not allow others to manipulate you into wearing yourself out. If you do, you will end up “going off” on some innocent bystander who has nothing to do with your emotional state. Once something flies out of your mouth, you will be unable to take it back. By week’s end, you will have the balance you have been striving for. Kick back and take it easy.

Pisces (Feb. 19 to March 20) — Social gatherings allow romantic possibilities to activate. All eyes are on you, so put your best foot forward. Focus on your personal appearance. Get out and purchase something fresh to wear and get to the salon. You may have been too busy as of late to really focus on yourself. A little tender, loving care goes a long way and pays off big.
